WE thank all our supporters for their contribution to making the open day on July 21 at our new shelter in Huntington such a great success.

Not only did we raise nearly £5,000 towards the cost of running the shelter, but we also re-homed 22 cats as a result of people spotting the right cat for them.

The one thing we now need above all else to keep the shelter running to capacity is more volunteers to come and help care for the cats while they are with us.

If you can make a regular commitment of two or three hours a week we - and the cats - would be delighted to welcome them.

For more details please ring Barbara Sharp on 01904 760356.
